Step by step

Nothing is cooked before it’s needed. Fish is battered and fried when people come up to the hatch, so it’s as fresh as from any chip shop. In summer, Tyler's Hill has daylight until about 9:25pm, so an early-evening garden visit works well. In winter, dark by about 3:55pm, a lunchtime visit is better.

  1. It starts with your date, numbers and mealtime.
  2. We check the parking spot and send a price.
  3. Portions and diets are planned with your care team.
  4. We park up and cook to order at mealtime.
  5. Afterwards, we pack up quietly.

Before we arrive

  • Confirm the van is allowed on site
  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Plan a bit of cover near the hatch if rain is likely

What comes out of the fryer

Haddock and chips

Haddock has a slightly sweeter flavour and a firmer flake. In the north and in Scotland, haddock is the classic.

Sausage and chips

For anyone who doesn’t fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and children love it.

FAQs for Tyler's Hill

Do you come to venues in the Chilterns National Landscape?

Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles and ground, so check with yours. We will work to whatever the site needs.

Do you come out to small places like Tyler's Hill?

Not at all. We serve villages and hamlets as well as towns. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

What areas do you cover?

We take the van across London and the South East, Buckinghamshire included. See all areas.

Do you fry it on site?

Yes. Everything is fried fresh in the van, and serve straight from the hatch.

Do you do anything other than fish?

We serve sausages and pies as well as fish. Let us know about any other dietary needs and we’ll be honest about what’s possible.

Where can the van park?

Less than you might think: a drive, a car park, a yard or a firm lawn, that the van can reach easily. If in doubt, send a picture.

How fast is service?

It depends on numbers, the menu and how people arrive. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan service around it.

Can the van park on the street?

Only in a legal space, or with the council’s permission. Ask your council early.

15 questions to ask before booking

Looking after everyone

With a bit of planning, dietary needs are easier to handle. A few tips:

  • Ask about smaller portions
  • Choose a spot away from ambulance routes
  • Residents on soft diets should have meals from your kitchen
  • Include staff and visitors in your numbers

We arrive in good time to park and heat the fryers.

Bunting, deckchairs and a seaside theme make it an occasion.

For event organisers in Tyler's Hill

For larger numbers, tell us how long you have for food, so we can plan how to keep the queue short. Sending people up in groups helps.

For repeat bookings, such as regular staff lunches or annual fairs, let us know your dates early, so we can hold the date.

Can’t we just order from the chip shop?

If you do order from a chip shop, ring well ahead and collect as close to eating time as you can. For anything more than a handful of people, a van is typically the easier option.
